Suzanne Somers, who became a household name after starring on the hugely popular TV sitcom 'Three's Company,' died Sunday morning at her Palm Springs home, according to the New York Times. She was 76. Somers died of cancer just one day shy of her 77th birthday, the actor's spokesperson R. Couri Hay said. “Suzanne Somers passed away peacefully at home in the early morning hours of Oct. 15.
” Somers played Chrissy Snow — the effervescent blond secretary — on 'Three's Company,' alongside John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt from 1977 to 1981. She was dropped during the show’s fifth season after a widely publicized salary dispute, in which she asked to paid as much as her male co-star Ritter. The actor, who was born in San Bruno, Calif., in 1946, would then go on to star in the ABC sitcom 'Step by Step' alongside Patrick Duffy. The show ran from 1991 to 1997.
